Kurosawa Kawara-ten renovates a small family annex without editing its history down to one period. Salvaged oak, reused keyaki, new cypress, Corten steel and titanium are allowed to age differently.
PrusaPATuner repurposes the Nextruder load cell to measure extrusion response and estimate Pressure Advance without adding another sensor.
Augmented Carpentry adds vision, tracking and feedback to ordinary handheld power tools. A one-to-one fabrication campaign shows what this compromise gains, and where it breaks.
STL does not know the unit, color or material of your part. It turns curves into triangles and forgets almost everything about the original model. That loss is also part of why it became so hard to replace.
DS8 Drumstream does not revive the PS Vita through nostalgia. It turns its buttons, sticks and limits into an instrument grammar.
Around the TR-808, repair, extension and reconstruction are not three kinds of nostalgia. They are three ways of deciding what an instrument should remain capable of being.
With PADNOS and Royal Technologies, Haworth turns black Fern plastics into pellets and new parts, while factory scrap also travels back into the same loop.
Stuff Made Here wanted to see industrial steam peeling happen. The hard part was not the potato, but building an observable prototype without turning the workshop into a projectile.
Cobre Estudio starts with a 2 mm steel sheet, laser cutting and a handful of folds. Structure and visual identity come from the same operations.
